Edwin, the Japanese denim company which has been at the forefront of the denim marketplace since their conception in 1947, have added a new tweak to their line for the Fall / Winter 2012 collection. Their new development is called Blanket Denim, a Japanese denim woven from a mix of cotton and viscose which leads to a neppy 12.7 oz denim with the inner feel of a blanket. The denim has been woven exclusively for Edwin at the famous Kuroki mill in Japan, where a number of the better denim lines to come out of Japan have been woven. Given how everyone likes to stay warm, and winter around the world is cold, these jeans will be the perfect addition to your winter wardrobe to keep your legs toasty.
For Fall / Winter 2012 the blanket denim will be available in ED55. Though it is not technically raw, given it has been rinsed for added comfort, ED55 appears like it will undergo the aging process much like a pair of raw denim due to the blanket component that will make the aging unique.
